It felt great when real testing came out and those 8k reviews were made with cherry picked settings and running the game at 720p and upscaling it instead of real 8k
Really shows how fucking disingenuous those big reviewers are.

1080p 144fps LCD is the sweet spot.
I have tasted 4k on OLED and it's good but not as big of a difference as people make it out to be. Hell 800p 45fps on Deck is decent too. I don't need more.

i have an expensive pc and even i realize that 1440p is the highest anyone should go.

Nvidia has not released anything that doesn't become obsolete in 2 years within the last 10 years. Coincidentally the GTX 1080 still isn't obsolete no matter how hard they try to make it obsolete.

>>740792451
im not talking about the power bill its more about the power usage and heat. going from 1440p to 4k increases both dramatically with not that much actual visual fidelity gain. might as well just use 1440p so the fans dont ramp up and the gpu doesnt become a space heater

no but the answer to all problems in life isnt "get married and have kids bro". people should better themselves and their lives and gain actual self respect and confidence not just desperately trying to enter relationships because society says its a good thing to be in one. just because a man is simply in a relationship with a woman doesnt automatically solve all his problems nor does it somehow instantly make him a better person

Well it sounds like you're just being autistic chasing a certain metric goal instead of just overall image quality. 4K DLSS Quality with RR still looks better than Native 1440p. When 4.5 gets RR you can set to Balanced and say the same thing about 1080p native.

I have a 5K display as part of a 2014 iMac
Wish I could use it with my modern PC. It's so good you could lick it. Can't believe there's still nobody making a display like this today besides Apple.

>>740808567
Death Stranding 2 made me realize most modern devs are just lazy. It looks so fucking good and yet runs at 60fps 1440p with ease on my i5-12400/RTX 3070 PC and with DLSS I get the full 144fps of my monitor.

Maybe you wouldn't make such poor decisions if you spent less time rotting your brain with vtumors.

You are playing Fallout 3. More than a new gpu, what you need is a brain transplant.

Some Skyrim modpacks require a 5090. I imagine you can get there with Fallout 3 too.

I'm still waiting for current monitors to catch up to CRTs so i can stop using CRTs.
I've been waiting 30 years.

I just bought a 68cm LG Flatron off facebook marketplace. It cost me $300AU.
The closest i can get to the motion clarity of this thing would be a 500hz OLED with that new CRT Beam Shader, and one of those will cost me $1800AU. And it still won't be as good as this 300 dollar CRT.
I primarily play standard def games from the NES to the Gamecube eras coz modern games are mostly garbage.
>>
>>740813241
*It took me an entire year to get this CRT because i live in a small town and this is literally the first one that's appeared on marketplace in my city, i bet there were hundreds of people trying to get it, but i managed to get in first somehow.

I honestly almost bought a second 5090 when one was offered to me for $2200. I knew they'd probably go up but I couldn't find a way to justify it. I kinda wish I did now.

Meh, I'd rather get multiple 3090/XTX/R9700 or the new Intels for more VRAM than a single 5090.
>>

I think they're around $3500 pretty easily now.

>>740815431
3090 is the card I had before I upgraded and I would absolutely not want that shit given how hot it runs. None of those cards will have the same resale value either which is kinda the point of the justification too.
>>
>>740791432
OP there is nothing left for me to upgrade. I have a 5090 FE, a Wooting 80HE 8K keyboard, the empirically objective best finger-tip mouse on the market (Gwolves Fenrir Asym 8K), the objective best vertical mouse for browsing/non-FPS gaming (the Keychron M5 8K), both mice have sapphire (yea the gemstone) skates on a large cordura mousepad (which is the fastest combo there is), my primary display is a 48" 4K HDR OLED monitor (unfortunately it looks like large format monitors are a dead market now so I'll probably have to upgrade to a fucking TV if I want something better or suffer the horrors of a tiny display), use a Steam Controller 2026 for anything that I don't play on keyboard/mouse (chill games, metroidvanias & platformers), Sennheiser HD800S headphones connected to a nice Amp/DAC over balanced 4-pin XLR, a decent microphone, foot pedals for extra input in every game (it is genuinely a game changer, slide, lean, crouch, abilities, etc), a small streamdeck for advanced functions/macros/workflows in CAD (don't really use it often for game stuff other than music/mic), and a wonderful beautiful devoted loving wife who shares my hobby and is as autistic as me with a damn near identical setup other than mouse/headphones/keyboard/monitor size to play games with everyday.

Damn that's an insane step up. Was it a shocking upgrade? I do every other generation so it isn't always so extreme. My path was:
570 SLI > 1080 Ti > 3090 Kingpin > 5090 FE. Skipped upgrading between the 570 and 1080 Ti because I was dirt poor in college, any spare money went to eating. That jump felt big but was a long time ago. The 1080 Ti to 3090 felt smaller because I went from 1080p to 1440p 240Hz and then 138Hz 4K. The 5090 FE is a massive upgrade on paper but games haven't really changed visually in the last 5 years so it only really made gaming less annoying, not visually more impressive.
>>740816350
Good point. My office chair is a Herman Millar Aeron. For gaming though I have swapped a lot. Was on a Steelcase Think v2 for a while but it sucked ass (doesn't truly lock and the back flexes like a wet noodle so you end up hunching while gaming), then sold to downgrade to an ErgoChair Pro from Autonomous which was nice-ish but never quite comfy enough, and finally after visiting a coworker and sitting in theirs bought a steelseries titan evo. I know... I know... gaymur chair. I didn't believe it either. The main issue is I NEED a chair that can LOCK in position. No flex. If I want to sit nearly perfectly 90 degrees I want a chair that can lock there or any angle beyond and this is apparently the only fucking chair in the world anymore that can. Everything now is flexible hippy bullshit that prevents you from resting the weight of your body against the back forcing you to support yourself due to flex and resulting in arched shoulders/back and ultimately back pain/damage.
But I look every week on the market for an alternative because I don't love it, was just sick of looking for something that fucking locks. If I could find a nice mesh office chair (with head/neck support) that truly locks at any angle you want and has removable/folding arm rests I'd switch to it instantly and throw this thing into a fire.

Ikea Markus has a variable back lock, and you can remove the arms pretty easily.
I downgraded to an Aeron and I constantly slide forward and slouch because the chair is apparently made for aliens or some shit. Shit makes me want to use the couch more which is even worse on your back.

I've sat in the Ikea Markus and it has too much back flex for me. I want to effectively feel like I'm leaning back against a cushioned concrete wall. That is apparently insanely rare. My Aeron is OK, it isn't great. I spend over half of the work day standing. It is just that my alternatives are not any better and the mesh is nice. The chair market is filled with flexible overpriced garbage that falls apart in 2 years. I like being able to rock and lean back, but I require the control to fully firmly lock as well while gaming or focusing on a task.
>>
Not sure where else to ask this, but is there any reason DMC 4 SE is locked to 120fps during gameplay? My 3080 can do locked 240fps at 1440p 4x SSAA/MSAA whatever the fuck in the benchmark and in cutscenes and it looks fantastic in motion on my 240hz monitor, but once I get into the game it locks to 120. Obviously still good enough but I'd rather not be arbitrarily locked to 120. Is this just archaic Nip game logic at work?

From 2017 to 2025, I play games on 900p (1600 x 900) resolution. In 2026, I've upgraded my GPU from a GTX 1060 6GB to an RTX 4070 Super, and I've jumped to playing games in 1080p resolution.
>b-but 4070s performs similar to 5070 that plays game in 2K (which is1440p)
I don't care. I'm still going to play my games on my 1080p monitor for another 10 years.

>I'm giving you $1,600.

>Buys shit games, a down payment on an 8k monitor and every single thing you can fucking put in a computer, an aftermarket controller, and Linux.

Nowadays, spend like $900 on a pre-built and it will play some good games at 2k, like all of them.
>I can't see shit when it's so HD and I don't get your point.

It used to be that CPU/GPU advancements were so frequent that your computer would get outdated every 2-3 years. You could find cheap used parts, so upgrading was frequent and easy.
Home PC market fucking sucks now and I don't think it'll get better in the next 5 years. A gaming laptop might be a better deal than a DIY PC right now, and probably won't perform much worse. Losing easy repairability is horrible but it's still a 97% chance for everything to be okay, besides dust in the fan and battery degradation (you'll be plugged in all the time for gaming anyways).
My only hate towards gaming laptops is that none of them are close to as good as the new macbook pros, which have incredible power and thermals but can't actually play games because macos lol.

The new handhelds all suck, even worse compromises than what gaming laptops already are. Steam deck was the best one and still just a novelty, not revolutionary. Laptops are fine.
